White Couple Sentenced to 28 Years for Displaying Confederate Flags

Jose Torres and Kayla Norton were part of a group displaying the flags on their vehicles when their caravan drove by a Black family’s outdoor birthday party, evidently greatly annoying the Blacks. Even though a shouting match ensued, the allegation that the Whites engaged in “terrorism” is preposterous. The extreme anti-White bias of the (apparently White) judge and prosecutor in this case should be cause for alarm.

Torres and Norton at their sentencing

IN JULY 2015, a group called Respect the Flag gathered on the public streets in Douglas County, Georgia. Their US and Confederate flag-festooned vehicles circled through many neighborhoods, as they “drove around with flags, selling them to raise money to donate American flags to people who can’t afford them,” according to the spokesman for the group. But in one of those neighborhoods, a group of Blacks taking part in an outdoor birthday party took severe exception when the caravan’s display passed by, shouting angry epithets and empty threats and getting some in return. The Blacks called police, who tried to separate the two groups.

Jose Torres

One participant, Levi Bush, said the rowdy Blacks were swarming the Respect the Flag vehicles, throwing rocks, and threatening the Whites with weapons.

The video above shows events after police had arrived.

Hardly a case of “terrorism” on either side; just one relatively minor unpleasantness among many major and minor unpleasant events caused by forcing people to live in a multiracial society.

In the Jewish-dominated and increasingly anti-White “New South,” though, the conflict was used to advance the political career of the Douglas County Assistant District Attorney, David Emadi, who called the flag group “a criminal street gang” and charged the group’s members with multiple felonies, and accused them of participating in “criminal gang activity” for driving with their flags displayed. The Respect the Flag members were charged with making “terroristic threats” against the party-goers.

Yesterday, a young White couple — Kayla Rae Norton, 25, and Jose Ismael Torres, 26 — cried in court as they were sentenced to a total of 28 years in prison for committing the “hate crime” of “racial terrorism” for driving past the party and shouting back at the enraged, out-of-control Blacks. No Black was charged.

Kayla Norton

In an effort to obtain leniency from the court, Norton expressed regret for her actions that day. She was also publicly “forgiven” in the courtroom by one of the party’s attendees. That did not deter Superior Court Judge William McClain from imposing a vengeful, unjustified sentence — which reads like something handed down by an anti-White System judge in The Turner Diaries: Torres will serve a sentence to 20 years, with a minimum of 13 served in prison, and Norton was given 15 years with a minimum of six to serve in prison. Upon their release, the two have been barred forever from their home and families in Douglas County. The couple have three children together, who will now be deprived of their mother and father.

Torres was described by family and friends in court as a devoted father, a hardworking plumber, and a dedicated volunteer football coach for local children. None of this swayed the anti-White judge, determined to prove his devotion to the Jewish-dominated System that misrules our nation.

Proving his political motivation, Judge McClain, a Republican, strongly emphasized to the defendants during sentencing the totally irrelevant fact that their caravan occurred less than a month after the shooting of nine Blacks by Dylann Roof, who had no connection whatsoever to anyone in this case.

Anti-White Judge William McClain

The couple were adjudged guilty of violating tough “street-gang terrorism” laws supported largely by conservative “law and order” Whites — but which are now (of course) being used by the System against White people. Two other defendants, Thomas Charles Summers and Lacey Paul Henderson II, fearing the anti-White witch hunt that has in fact ensued, had pleaded guilty earlier to making “terroristic threats” and received four and two years respectively.

Anti-White prosecutor David Emadi

Judge McClain, continuing his anti-White tirade, said Torres and Norton would have to “answer for their behavior” with long prison sentences. He also denounced the sensible decision of the Douglasville Police Department not to arrest any of the Respect the Flag group that day. He called their refusal to arrest White Americans engaging in exercising the First Amendment rights “inexplicable” and “a very bad mistake.”

It seems every day I read stories about high school kids being forced to turn their confederate T-shirt inside out, remove their belt buckle or take the flag off the back of their car in the parking lot; this also includes the American flag, too. When is someone going sue these bastards on grounds of the First Amendment? The two people in this story did nothing wrong. How on earth can this stand? Is there an appeal pending? These poor souls need a legal defense fund set up ASAP where people can donate. “Street Gang Terrorism” laws, indeed. What kind of crime is street gang terrorism? Just another broad and ambiguous umbrella category under which the system can include as many types of behavior as possible. Just like “hate speech”… Read more »

The United States hates the Southern nation; it hates White people; it hates the Dixie Battle Flag.

The Jew’s imaginary tribal god up in the sky, Yahweh, and his chimerical son, born of a virgin, are problematic even to Southerners who are neither superstitious nor gullible, not just to deep statist goons who dislike Southerners.

This decision was inexplicable and frightening. Even after released from prison, the convicted pair appear to permanently lose rights to visit their own three children. I bet this legal team has accepted shorter sentences for rapists and armed robbers that they prosecuted/tried, especially on plea-deals, yet in this case there was no physical injury or meaningful threat of deadly force. A good defense lawyer would have brought that up, and any prior-sentencing inconsistency, in the sentencing phase, even though that is likely judicial misconduct. The national MSM doesn’t see how dangerous this is, but hand-wrings over illegal dish-washers. Yet I also bet that this matter will be addressed on a news magazine show like 60 minutes.

Out of curiosity:

Why does the author use the terms “white” and “black” to describe people? Is there not a spectrum, depending on ancestry? Would it not be more accurate to say “white-skinned” and “black-skinned” people?

White and Black as used here are names of races, races — subspecies, really — which are measurably different in mental makeup, bodily structure, and biological functioning. They naturally form very different societies when left to their own devices, and remain dramatically different even when unnaturally forced to live for generations under the same government. Skin color is but one small difference among hundreds between these two races. Color is merely one of many external signs of the manifold inner differences — much like the different colors of the tufted titmouse and the cardinal are but one obvious external sign of the innumerable differences between them.

This is absurd, preposterous and ludicrous. Driving around displaying a Flag and provoke, may be inappropriate and perhaps childish, but they did not destroy anybody’s life, possibly just a birthday party. This is just the blacks revenge for their historical suffering. Had the Judge been black, we would probably have seen far more protests from the white community. If the blacks feel that they are discriminated, their attitudes in the court room and in this case won’t do them much good.

That’s not true. Empty threats were made by both sides, but no one said he or she was going to kill children. Not even the most biased of the Jewish-controlled media are claiming that, as far as I have seen. The Blacks threatened to attack first, according to witnesses. It is — or ought to be — absolutely legal for someone to display a weapon in order to deter such a threat, and that is exactly what was done. The Blacks were not punished in even the slightest way for their threats. The White couple, who did no more than the Blacks, will spend a huge portion of their young lives in prison, unable to parent their three children — and upon release will be banned forever from their home… Read more »

Dude, this article is absurd. This group of people went out of their way to drive around with confederate flags everywhere, causing a huge scene. There were mutliple 911 calls about them prior to this occuring.

The convicted in a court of law brandished a shotgun and threatened a childrens birthday party.

I’d really encourage anyone to do more research into this case. This “article” doesn’t mention the shotgun that this couple held on a childrens birthday party…

There are lots of injustices in the world, this is not one of them. I’d really look into this, if you’re standing up for the convicted couple–you’re on the wrong side of history. Seriously.

Hearing Hyesha Bryant speaking in court makes me feel bad. I suppose she’s the mother of the child, whose birthday party was celebrated. She “forgives” she so generously declares, but she does not seem to care the least about Torrres’s and Norton’s destroyed lives, who have got a harsh and disproportionate punishment .

She will have a birthday party for her daughter next year, while Torres and Norton may never ever celebrate their children’s birthdays. Honestly, I believe, that behind her emotional performance in that courtroom, there’s neither heart nor soul, but just hatred for them and a hidden feeling of joy seeing two young white people being sent to prison.

How is it a “Terrorist Act” to drive around with flags (any flag) on your vehicle ? This is the USA !!! Even if you get into a argument/altercation, w/ some jigs; its disorderly conduct, at worst assault. So why aren’t the defense lawyers screaming 1. Violation of Civil Rights- freedom of speech, freedom of association, right to a fair trial. 2. Judicial misconduct- being sentenced as a “Terrorist”, excessive sentence, and on and on. Norton/Torres must have the worst defense lawyers in the country to allow this miscarriage to happen.

They never should’ve stopped near the party, but kept on going, staying and arguing with blacks is like talking to a wall. There was at least one case where a black invaded a woman’s home to take down a flag, these people are crazy. I would’ve kept on driving and never engaged the party goers at all, that was a big, big mistake.
As far as the sentence goes, hopefully it will be overturned, the “punishment has to fit the crime” is one of the cornerstones of our judicial system, and this sentence is way out of line with the any harm, real or imagined done to anyone.

I had to see for myself, as I’m not a U S resident. There’s in fact an official State Flag in Georgia (a new one in 2003, which replaced the old one) based on the national flag of the Confederacy. If it was that one or the earlier one, which the group was waving in which Norton and Torres participated, is of less importance. What matters, however, is that all news reports and comments about the incident, as far as I can see, by journalists representing MSM, especially by Afro-American reporters/journalists affirm, that it’s provocative to display the flag in question in places where there are blacks. What about white people singing the national hymn in the presence of a black audience, while displaying the Stars and Stripes Flag. What… Read more »

The sentence brings to mind the tyrannically harsh and barbarian sentences against the political dissidents in the communist states: Soviet Russia, China and the North Korea. Has the United States changed into a Stalinist dump?

The Soviets also propagated a “multicultural” policy; look at some of their propaganda posters showing representatives of all races standing or marching side by side in a perfect harmony and grinning happily.
